What Chinese medicine should I take for toothache?

There are many reasons that can cause toothache, the most common of which are gingivitis, periodontitis, or sensitivity caused by pulpitis. Failure to brush your teeth on time, lack of proper brushing habits, tooth decay, and even inflammation may cause toothache. Toothache is not a serious disease, but the unspeakable pain can be fatal. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that toothache is caused by excessive heat in the human body. So, what Chinese medicine is good for treating stomach fire toothache?

First of all, patients can take Niuhuang Jiedu Tablets, which is very effective in clearing away heat and detoxifying. It is also a drug covered by medical insurance. The main ingredients of this medicine are artificial bezoar, realgar, gypsum and rhubarb. If people are allergic to any of these ingredients, this medicine is not suitable for taking. It is more appropriate to take Niuhuang Jiedu Tablets 2 to 3 times a day, but pregnant women are not suitable for taking Niuhuang Jiedu Tablets.

In fact, in addition to Niuhuang Jiedu Tablets, patients can also take Niuhuang Jiedu Pills or Sanhuang Tablets. These medicines are also better in clearing heat and detoxifying.

Secondly, in addition to some Chinese patent medicines for clearing heat and detoxifying, patients can also take antibiotics if they want to better treat the disease. But it should be noted that patients must follow the doctor's instructions when taking antibiotics.

In fact, whether it is antibiotics or Chinese patent medicines for clearing heat and detoxifying, patients must store them in a cool and dry place, and keep them where children cannot find them, so as to ensure the safety of the medication.
